Don’t get too excited, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” fans -- you know who you are, even if you won’t admit it -- the rumors that June Shannon is going to be a contestant on the next “Dancing with the Stars” appear to be greatly exaggerated. Although an anonymous insider from the show allegedly told the New York Daily News that Mama June would be taking to the dance floor soon, TLC quickly denied the rumor.

york daily news mama june dance floor tlc denied rumor

She’s one of a few celebs who are said to be competing in the upcoming season. Others include controversial boxer Victor Ortiz, recent “Bachelorette” Emily Maynard and Kourtney Kardashian, who would be keeping up with sibs Rob and Kim, who already made bids for the Mirror Ball Trophy.

But Mama June seemed like a perfect candidate for the reality show, which often uses the term "stars" loosely. They never shy away from a controversial character like Season 10’s Kate Gosselin. And they love someone who’s capable of making a physical transformation a la Kelly Osbourne. The “Honey Boo Boo” matriarch has already shed 120 pounds without going to the gym or eating right. So imagine how she’d look after practicing the quick step for a week.

The complete list of contenders will be announced on February 26 on “Good Morning America” and the season premiere is set for March 16. What do you think? Should Honey Boo Boo's mom be on "Dancing With the Stars"?

    YES CHILD ENDANGERMENT..! Have you taken a moment to observe this woman's child....? This little / big girl is being raised to emulate her mothers image, not only that her ignorant ass mother in 100% encouraging this child obese life style....

    As a result by the time this child grow up and reach an age to know better and MAYBE choose to take a different path she could have already started to develop irreversible health issues.... How selfish can you be to think it to be ok for a parent to impose their idiot views onto their children without consequences...

    And to use you quote "Someone Shoot Me"...! Frankly I wish someone would take people that feels its ok to be irresponsible toward unsuspecting children out to be shot.... It is no secret that obesity is one of the leading cause of countless diseases and a shorter life.... Why would you want that for a unsuspecting child...?

    As cruel as it would be for someone to shoot you..., it is even crueler you put this kind of lifestyle onto children.. So I truly wish someone would take people that think like you and do just that.., shoot each and everyone of you....JOMO

    Thanks for the heads up but you must understand that my point is focused at obesity.., And not the individual.., whether it be in the form of entertainment or actual life.... When those that have the world stage and are able to promote by way of entertainment a lifestyle that give rise to young people finding a way to identify with it.., I take issue with that.....!

    So if there are those that want to rage on me for that..., I got one message for them and that is "BRING IT ON".....! JOMO

    No, I know what you mean, man. You're right, parents have to set some kind of example for their children. When you leave your children exposed and open to ridicule and disappointment you're just setting them up for failure. And when your lifestyle sets them on a path to morbid obesity that's even worse! She's not gonna be young forever. AND she's exploiting her for fame. It's bad all the way around. I agree with you 100%.

    BTW its child "endangerment", not in danger meant ;)

    I know for some reason every time I typed it the correct way my computer did a spell check and corrected it the incorrect way.. So I just left it....Thanks for your spell check... I am trying to type it on my iPad oppose to my computer and it seems to hold the correct spelling of child endangerment....LOL....

    Oh yeah thanks for the support.....JOMO

    My point was about the use of "in danger meant" instead of "endangerment". I make no comment about the appropriateness or inappropriateness of any of these "boo-boo" people's lifestyles, since I have no knowledge of it nor any desire to enrich myself through such knowledge. I have not wasted any of my time watching this show, or any other television, for well over ten years.

    My rage is more generally directed against parents who impose their "idiot views" upon their children by forcing them to accept the nonsensical doctrines of religion, and to deny the realities of the world they live in. Willful ignorance at that fundamental level leads to ignorance at other levels. I'm sure you can follow the logic through to whatever idiocy you choose to focus on regarding these people.

    edit - just saw your other posts about the spelling. I withdraw my request for a firing squad in this instance.

    I deserved you scrutiny..., without sounding like I'm looking for an excuse I typed my response on my computer and the spell check repeatedly CHANGED IT after I typing it the correct way... It was me being irresponsible choosing to leave the improper spelling in place....

    I did however edit my carelessness by using my iPad and the correct spelling held true to the proper spelling..... Like I said I deserve your criticism.., I put the importance of my message before the correct spelling... Won't happen again.....! LOL.... JOMO

    Just another chance for fools to laugh at her! She should have learned enough by this time that she is being exploited and rwefuse to cooperate further, no matter how much they pay her. She is just there to be a laughing stock.

    Who wants to see a blob of fat oozing about a ballroom floor. Also, ballroom dancing is very demanding she would probably have a heart attack and die then the network would be lible for her death.

    If Ms. Shannon doesn't have any self-awareness, the DWTS producers at least should have some discretion. There is nothing wrong or evil about being heavy -- self-esteem isn't the issue -- but face it, there are going to be lowbrow viewers who tune in just to see a fat lady dance and probably leave a less than graceful impression. (And c'mon, Kirstie Alley isn't even in the same dimension.) Why cater to these Neanderthals?

    Oh, save us from this! I am a devoted DWTS fan, but if they do this I'm gone. I realize they are getting more and more desperate for celebrities and now are using reality show stars (how can they even be called stars?)

    Fans had to put up with Kate Gosselin who has absolutely no sense of rhythm, not to mention was an absolute witch on wheels to poor Tony and then we had to watch Nancy Grace who had a bit more musicality but was another carefully made up battle-axe to her professional partner, Tristan. Both women tried to direct their choreographer/partners.

    Not to forget the show shoving people over 65 onto the dance floor and we have to hope they are voted off before they have a massive heart attack...it's getting to be a travesty of the show it once was. But I can only hope they spare us this last.. It may be a rumor but I believe DWTS would try inviting her, I really do. She's an obnoxious, hideous woman and she's not a star. I sure hope it's a joke.
